Hello. I have a different topic for FitBit.
Not only am I dismayed at the short length of durability of the watches for the price, FitBit just announced that since it has joined Google, and they expanded on all the different topics.
However, I do not know if they understand that Google now has a "silent" partner named "TikTok". They are now the "controllers" of the Discovery page. How I found out, I am not a fan of having "discovery" on my cell phone because basically it is just another way for Google to track and try and get money from you by sending you ads (no, they don't share your info with the individual companies, but they to send "phish hooks" to get you hooked).
I digress. I removed Discovery from my new cell phone. A couple of days later it was back and I contacted Google to remove it, again. This time I received a short message, "TikTok is in charge of "Discovery" now. As most people know, TikTok is directly tied to the CCP in China, so FitBit is sharing all of our information to the CCp via Google.
Okay, that means the CCP now has a direct line to your information.
When this FitBit watch I bought "ends its sad, little, short, dismal life," I will not be renewing.
Google being nosy was bad enough but now they have a "partner", TikTok that is directly tied to the CCP.
No Thanks. !!!

I have heard nothing about Google even being in a partnership with TikTok, so I will ask.
That said, nothing that you're talking about is making sense. The Discover pages in the Fitbit app, TikTok, and Google app have nothing to do with each other. I strongly advise you to check your sources before spreading misinformation.

Actually yes I do as that doesn't happen to me and I have all 3 apps on my phone.
I think you're confused as none of the pages have anything to do with each other. TikTok is for user generated content, Google is for news, while the Fitbit app is for health information.
Please post reliable links for further investigation on how those 3 pages are related.
